6m and 4.8m Shaka Shack

Our most cost effective Tiny House! 

The 6m Shaka Shack is the same layout as our traveller version except it is slightly longer and built using more standard and economical building techniques, materials and appliances due to weight restrictions not being a factor.

We love the layout of the Shaka Shack is so we wanted to recreate that without the expense of lightweight building materials and Off-Grid appliances. 

Here we have a very cost-effective option without sacrificing quality or style.

Trailer Options

Depending on the intended use of your Tiny House we have different trailer options available.

 
 
 
 
 

Fixed trailer


Used if you don’t intend to remove the house from the trailer. Used commonly on the Shaka Shack when its intention is to be moved frequently.

Smart trailer


Used if you don’t intend on moving your Tiny House or might only move it a few times. We own a Master Trailer that we can use to tow all Tiny Homes built using the Smart Trailer system. This means (if your Council allow it) you don’t need to bear the costs of having a fully functional trailer Under-utilised beneath your house. You can rent the Smart Trailer from us for $200/day or we can move your Tiny House for you. Price dependent on hours+kilometers required.

Fixed to foundation


We can offer any Tiny House design fixed to foundations. This will require building consent but is very possible. Some people prefer this option if they own the land and want to increase the value of their property.
